- Almost exactly the same quality as Cricut Blade

First of all, I received all 20 blades. As you can see in the pictures, I tested with each version of the regular blades and with the standard Cricut brand blade. The pictures on the website are correct but the written description is not. The written description says 10x blue (45 degrees) and although I received 10 of these at 45 degrees the caps were red. So, just to clarify, when I tested Red was 45 degrees, Yellow was 60 degrees, and Blue was 35 degrees. =UTF8&psc=1) Blue (35 degrees) and Yellow (60 degrees) had the most clipping problems. The red blade worked fairly well, although there were a few spots where it didn't cut properly in the corners. But it looks good and the letters I cut out were quite curved which could always be the reason based on my experience with cardboard. With the lower quality white vinyl I used https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00LUUF5MM/ ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 the pictures show that all blades, even brand new blades- Cricut cutting issues. I wasn't that surprised because the design was small. The blue blade worked best for this, even better than the Cricut blade. Each run was performed using the washi paper settings in the user preferences. I always take that for vinyl. Using higher quality holographic vinyl https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07DNLBYLQ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 the result was pretty good for all blades but the blue blade really shines for this one, pretty just as good like a cricut blade. Same matte and settings as white vinyl. Overall I am very happy with these blades. I really feel like I can make more adjustments based on what blade I'm using and get the results I want. As for price, I don't care if I can only use them for less complex things and use the Cricut brand for complex things. Great offer!
